Part of my Gumby Collection
I suppose eventually someone around here is going to point out how unprofessional it is to have these hanging in my office.

… subtitled: Sets Of Three So here we are, one week post-Armegeddon. Ashes fall, buildings glow in the dark, and cats eat day lilies. But let’s put things in order, shall we? I inadvertently left my severance contract on my desk when I was escorted from the premises. I only had seven days to review…
Music doesn’t make life worth living, but like spices added to cooking, it makes life taste better. I went into a local used/new CD store yesterday for Norha Jones “Feels Like Home”. They had it on sale there. I also walked out with Alan Parsons Project, two REM’s, a They Might be Giants, and a…
Labor Day weekend went well, if too quickly. I had a great time with Man-who-uses-forty-foot-ladders-to-hang-birdhouses and The Texan Elf. Pity both don’t live more closely. I made lobsters and corn on the cob for dinner, and both turned out just fine (insert huge sigh of relief here). We went out and played miniature golf afterwards,…
Pilling Clueless Wonder can be a true joy. It can also be a source of amazement. CW is currently getting antibiotics twice a day. It’s a small pill, and I could probably fit three of them on my little finger’s nail. Because of this, I just bury one in a cat treat (Pounce is the…
I swore off tests and quizzes months ago. They were taking over my diary at one point, and that wasn’t what I wanted my diary to be about. Sleep deprivation does strange things to a person though. With nothing better to do at 5:00 in the morning, I decided to take that Emode Inkblot Test…
Dar Williams earned her ticket fees last night. I just wish I could say the same of her opening act. I’d have probably been happier if I hadn’t rushed to get to the concert after work, but instead waited until the group who opened had done their thing. The opening act was some group called…
Charley Pride? Far out…
i thought about training my Daisy…but she shows no interest. i firmly believe you *can* train cats, the problem is that they are not as easily manipulated as dogs. That, and cats just don’t care.
your training sessions with the cats made me smile! lol.
i got a cat yesterday, myself–one made of wood. it will always be sitting.
sorry about your aches 🙁
yeah! cat’s seem to love that tartar control pounce. my mina comes when i ask her to…your CW reminds me of her.
So you’re coming to Nashville! I’ll have to keep my eyes peeled for you – even though I’ve only seen you from the eyes up! Anyway, I had to laugh at your saying you’d have to check out the "finer local restaurants"… we’re not known for our great restaurants… but there are a few good ones. My favorite is The Medditeranean Cuisine on 21st Avenue South (just south of downtown). Also good is Calypso Cafe (in 2 locations). August Moon is okay for Chinese food; it’s in Green Hills (about a 10 minute drive from downtown). If you’re staying in town, a good one down there is Big River Grille & Brewer Works on Broadway (that’s where S and I had our very first date!). Hope you have a good time!
Sugar and Chocolate??? How did I end up with Beer and Vanilla LOL!!!
I have a friend that goes to a vet conference every year. I’m thinking it was hmmm on the East Coast last year and Hawaii the year before. Same conference? They always turn it into a sight seeing trip and seem to really enjoy themselves.

It’s HPS alright?
Geez, what would a Space Cadet know about diseases, anyway? Eh? Eh?
Hmpf!
I have never heard of Sugar Gliders before. I want a pet like that! With wings 🙂 yay!
Oh, and I wanted to have ‘cur’ as my username, because it’s always been my online nickname, but for some reason I couldn’t have it, so I chose NooNoo. I got the silly nick at Angels in the Night chat :). You can call me cur, if you prefer. Most people do :).
Love,
cur
sugar gliders as pets? i didn’t know that.
do they stink much?
Hope you are feeling better. I enjoyed reading your entry today.

My desk is covered in the happy meal toys, so don’t feel bad.

I was alway envious of Gumby because he had a horse and I didn’t. Cool collection!
Oh No Mr. Bill….thanks for bringing back some good memories.
